4 Dear shareholders, employees and business associates, United Internet AG can look back on a successful first nine months of 2014. Once again we achieved strong improvements in sales, the number of customer contracts and our key earnings ratios. At the same time, we continued to invest heavily in new customer acquisition, the expansion of our existing customer relationships, and new business fields thus establishing the basis for our future growth. In addition to these foundations, we also ensured further growth and savings potential with the complete takeover of Versatel and the access this provides to Germany s second-largest fiber-optic network. Specifically, we succeeded in raising consolidated sales to a new record of 1 2.171 billion in the first nine months of 2014 representing year-on-year growth of 11.0%. There was also a further increase in customer figures with the addition of 660,000 contracts in the first nine months of 2014. As a result, we now hold a total of 14.11 million fee-based customer contracts. This growth was driven in particular by our Access business where we gained 390,000 Mobile Internet contracts and 170,000 DSL contracts. In the Applications segment, we made changes to our sales and marketing measures as previously announced during the reporting period. As part of this change, we focused less on new customer acquisition in the first nine months of 2014 and more on developing and expanding existing customer relationships. Nevertheless, we also raised the number of customer contracts in this segment by 100,000 and sold 280,000 new top-level domains (ntlds) to new and existing customers. At the same time, we reduced start-up losses in our new business fields (De-Mail / 1&1 MyWebsite) and for our E-Mail made in Germany initiative to 1 34.1 million in the reporting period (prior year: 1 87.0 million) thanks to rising contribution margins and reduced advertising spending. Our focus on these measures is reflected by significantly improved earnings in this segment. At Group level, earnings in the first nine months of 2014 were affected by one-off income from the contribution of our investments in the portfolio companies of the Global Founders Capital Funds to Rocket Internet AG. This non-cash and non-recurring income accounted for 1 71.5 million of total earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) in the third quarter or 1 0.36 of earnings per share (EPS). Without this one-off income, EBITDA rose by 35.4% from 1 280.5 million to 1 379.8 million and EBIT by 49.0% from 1 210.6 million to 1 313.7 million. Adjusted EPS improved by 56.5% from 1 0.69 last year to 1 1.08. Our free cash flow position underlines the entire Group s ability to generate very healthy levels of cash while at the same time achieving strong qualitative growth. At 1 239.8 million, this figure was well above the prior-year level of 1 155.3 million. On the back of the company s positive development, our share also continued its good performance and ended the first nine months at 1 33.70. This represents growth of 9.0% compared to December 31, 2013, and growth of 20.4% compared to September 30, 2013.

foreword management report financial statements notes 5 In September 2014, we conducted a capital increase against cash contributions through partial use of Authorized Capital. In a private placement, the new shares were offered exclusively to institutional investors by way of an accelerated bookbuilding placement. The private placement began on September 15 and ended on September 16, 2014. As a result of the capital increase, United Internet s share capital was raised from 1 194 million to 1 205 million. The 11 million new ordinary registered shares (no-par value shares) were placed at a price of 1 32.00 per share. The company received total gross proceeds of around 1 352.0 million from the issue (before commissions and expenses). The net proceeds of the capital increase raise the company s financial flexibility from corporate financing. With the figures for customer contracts, sales, and earnings achieved in the first nine months of 2014 and the investments already made, we are well on track. Against this backdrop, we expect sales growth of around 10% for our business activities to date. Despite the upgraded contract growth forecast in August 2014 (around 900,000 instead of previously > 800,000) and the related increase in costs for customer acquisition, EBITDA is still expected to improve to around 1 520 million (prior year: 1 407.2 million). Moreover, new business activities (initial consolidation of Versatel on October 1, 2014) are expected to contribute revenues of approx. 1 130 million, EBITDA of approx. 1 40 million, and approx. 440,000 further customer contracts. In addition to the stated one-off income of the third quarter (Rocket transaction), we also expect one-off, non-cash income from the Versatel acquisition in the fourth quarter. We are well prepared for the next steps in our company s development and upbeat about our prospects for the last quarter of the year. In view of the company s successful performance in the first nine months of 2014, we would like to express our particular gratitude to all employees for their dedicated efforts as well as to our shareholders and customers for the trust they continue to place in United Internet AG. Montabaur, November 18, 2014 Ralph Dommermuth

6 Group management report for the first nine months of 2014 Principles of the Group Business model Founded in 1988 and headquartered in Montabaur, Germany, United Internet AG is Europe s leading internet specialist with 14.11 million fee-based customer contracts and 31.80 million ad-financed free accounts around the world. The company s operating activities are divided into the two segments Access and Applications. The Access segment comprises the company s fee-based landline and mobile access products, including the respective applications (such as home networks, online storage, telephony or video-on-demand). United Internet operates exclusively in Germany in this segment, where it is one of the leading providers. The company remains largely independent of network providers by purchasing standardized network services from various pre-service providers. These are enhanced with end-user devices, self-developed applications and services from the company s own Internet Factories in order to differentiate them from the competition. Access products are marketed by the well-known brands GMX, WEB.DE and 1&1, which enable the company to offer a comprehensive range of products to a mass market while also targeting specific customer groups. With the complete takeover of Versatel on October 1, 2014, United Internet now also has its own network. With a length of around 37,000 km, it is Germany s second-largest fiber-optic network. With its own network infrastructure, United Internet also has the opportunity to source internally produced DSL pre-services in the future and thus to reduce costs. Moreover, Versatel adds voice, data and network solutions for small and medium-sized companies, as well as infrastructure services for large corporations, to the existing product portfolio. The Applications segment comprises the company s application business whether ad-financed or via fee-based subscriptions. These applications include domains, home pages, webhosting, servers and e-shops, Personal Information Management applications (e-mail, to-do lists, appointments, addresses), group work, online storage and office software. The applications are developed by the company s Internet Factories or in cooperation with partner firms and operated at the company s seven data centers. In its Applications segment, United Internet is also a global player with activities in numerous European countries (Germany, France, the UK, Italy, Austria, Poland, Switzerland and Spain) as well as North America (Canada, Mexico and the USA). Applications are marketed to specific target groups via the differently positioned brands GMX, mail.com, WEB.DE, 1&1, Arsys, InterNetX, Fasthosts and uniteddomains. United Internet also offers its customers performance-based advertising and sales platforms on the internet via Sedo and affilinet. Group structure, strategy and control With reference to the Group s structure, strategy and control, we refer to the explanations provided in the combined Management Report 2013 (Annual Report 2013, pages 42 et seq.). There have been no significant changes from the Group perspective.

8 Research and development As an internet service provider, the United Internet Group does not engage in research and development (R&D) on a scale comparable with manufacturing companies. For this reason, United Internet does not disclose key figures for R&D. At the same time, the United Internet brands stand for internet access, solutions and innovative web-based products and applications which are mostly developed in-house. The success of United Internet is rooted in an ability to develop, combine or adapt innovative products and services and launch them on major markets. In addition to constant improvements and measures to secure the reliable operation of all services offered, the approximately 2,000 developers, product managers and technical administrators at United Internet s domestic and foreign development centers worked in particular on the following projects during the first nine months of 2014: Provision of registration processes for new top-level domains (ntlds) Development and implementation of new e-shops based on the technology of United Internet investment epages Change of SSL encryption for all e-mail services to German keys as part of the E-Mail made in Germany initiative Expansion of the 1&1 MyWebsite product family with the addition of the new offering 1&1 MyWebsite by Experts Integration of the new pre-service provider E-Plus into the Mobile Internet product portfolio Development and integration of List Local (1-click publication and updating of company details in online business directories), a new e-business product based on the technology of United Internet investment Uberall Development of Inbox Ad, an innovative advertising tool integrated into GMX and WEB.DE die e-mail accounts Development of multi-screen targeting for dialogue marketing campaigns on United Internet portals which is independent of end-device and advertising format Migration of all mail.com customers to latest mail client generation General economic, sector and legal conditions Macroeconomic development In its latest report (World Economic Outlook, update October 2014), the International Monetary Fund (IMF) warned against a new global economic crisis. According to the IMF, the risks for the global economy have grown again over the past months. As a consequence, the Fund downgraded its global economic forecast for the third consecutive time and now expects growth of just 3.3% for 2014 0.4 percentage points less than at the beginning of the year.

foreword management report financial statements notes 9 The latest economic report states the following reasons for the more modest outlook: Stagnation instead of the desired upturn in the eurozone Economic damage caused by geopolitical crises (Ukraine, Middle East) Overheated financial markets do not reflect real economic situation Low capital spending and demand-side stimulation in the major economies Lack of structural reforms in numerous nations Following the end of the third quarter, the IMF is much more upbeat about the prospects for the US economy and has raised its growth forecast for 2014 by 0.5 percentage points to 2.2%. However, this means that the forecast for the USA is still 0.6 percentage points below expectations at the beginning of the year. Whereas the outlook for Canada was almost unchanged (+0.1 percentage points compared to the January forecast), the IMF strongly downgraded its forecast for Mexico during the year by 0.6 percentage points to 2.4%. United Internet s target markets in North America as a whole are therefore performing worse than expected. Economic development in the UK exceeded expectations and consequently the IMF raised its 2014 forecast during the year by 0.7 percentage points to 3.2%. For the eurozone, however, the IMF downgraded its forecast substantially after the third quarter and now expects growth of just 0.8% for 2014 0.3 percentage points less than at the beginning of the year. The economic trend varies in United Internet s main target markets: whereas the IMF downgraded its forecast for France (-0.5 percentage points to 0.4%) and Italy (-0.8 percentage points to -0.2%), the growth outlook for Spain was raised by 0.7 percentage points to 1.3%. After the end of the third quarter, the IMF also strongly downgraded its outlook for Germany United Internet s most important market by far (sales share in 2013: 88.8%) by 0.5 percentage points to 1.4% or 0.1 percentage points less than at the beginning of the year.

Whereas gross domestic product (GDP) was judged to have grown by 0.7% in the first quarter, there was a decline of 0.2% in the second quarter of 2014. And growth in the third quarter of 2014 was measured at just 0.1%.

The outlook is based on the latest figures of the European Information Technology Observatory (EITO). BITKOM thus largely confirmed the 2014 forecast it made in spring but noted strong shifts between various sub-markets over the course of the year. The market for desktop PCs and notebooks, for example, has returned to growth again while the pace of growth for smartphones and tablets has slowed. At the same time, demand for mobile data services continues to grow while revenues from mobile voice services decline. All in all, Germany s high-tech companies can look back on a successful 2014 so far. This is also the finding of the latest survey conducted by BITKOM in July 2014. Around 74% of all ITC companies interviewed reported increased revenues, while just 13% suffered falling sales. Companies are equally upbeat about their prospects for 2014 as a whole: 81% of them expect further sales growth, whereas just 8% anticipate a decline in revenue. Legal conditions / significant events In the first nine months of 2014, the legal parameters for United Internet s business activities remained largely unchanged from fiscal year 2013 and thus had no significant influence on the development of the United Internet Group. There were also no significant events in the first nine months of 2014 which had a material influence on the development of business. Business development of the Group Development of the Access segment As a result of dynamic customer growth, sales of the Access segment rose by 12.1% to 1 1.482 billion in the first nine months of 2014. In this segment, a marketing campaign for 1&1 DSL premium tariffs was held from January to June 2014. In the course of this campaign, new and existing customers (when changing to a premium tariff) were able to opt for the addition of a heavily subsidized (or even free) brand-name tablet. Costs of approx. 1 20.6 million were expensed for the campaign. These investments will have a sustained positive impact on the future development of segment earnings.

foreword management report financial statements notes 11 All in all, EBITDA and EBIT were up by 21.6% and 25.0% on the previous year at 1 213.9 million (prior year: 1 175.9 million) and 1 193.3 million (prior year: 1 154.7 million), respectively. All customer acquisition costs for DSL and Mobile Internet products, as well as costs for the migration of resale DSL connections to complete DSL packages (ULL = Unbundled Local Loop), continue to be charged directly as expenses. Key sales and earnings figures in the Access segment (in 5 million) Sales 1,321.9 1,418.7 + 12.1% EBITDA 213.9 175.9 + 21.6% EBIT 154.7 193.3 + 25.0% 9M 2014 9M 2013 Quarterly development (in 5 million); change over previous quarter Q4 2013 Q1 2014 Q2 2014 Q3 2014 Q3 2013 Change Sales 466.4 477.2 495.3 509.2 458.7 + 11.0% EBITDA 69.5 55.3 72.7 85.9 67.1 + 28.0% EBIT 62.7 47.6 66.2 79.5 60.2 + 32.1% Historical development of key sales and earnings figures (in 5 million) 9M 2010 9M 2011 9M 2012 9M 2013 9M 2014 Sales 913.0 1,008.2 1,169.0 1,321.9 1,481.7 EBITDA 102.6 109.1 145.5 175.9 213.9 EBITDA margin 11.2% 10.8% 12.4% 13.3% 14.4% EBIT 82.8 87.2 125.2 154.7 193.3 EBIT margin 9.1% 8.6% 10.7% 11.7% 13.0% The number of fee-based Access contracts rose by 560,000 to 6.10 million contracts in the first nine months of 2014. The segment added 390,000 new customer contracts in its Mobile Internet business and thus raised the number of customers to 2.37 million. There was also growth in the important complete DSL contract business with the addition of 230,000 customer contracts to reach a total of 3.41 million. As expected, the number of customer contracts for those business models being phased out (T-DSL and R-DSL) continued to fall (-60,000 contracts). The total number of DSL contracts therefore grew by a further 170,000 contracts to 3.73 million in the first nine months of 2014.

In January 2014, 1&1 added the new 1&1 Notebook Flat Special to its range of notebook user tariffs. For a monthly fee of 1 4.99, the tariff includes 500 MB of high-speed surfing volume at up to 14.4 MBit/s. The tariff appeals especially to occasional users. In addition, the three existing 1&1 Notebook Flat tariffs were upgraded and optimized for varying user needs. The 1&1 Notebook Flat L for 1 9.99 per month offers 1.5 GB of high-speed surfing volume at up to 21.6 MBit/s. For 1 14.99 per month, 1&1 Notebook Flat XL includes 3 GB of high-speed surfing volume at up to 21.6 MBit/s. And the 1&1 Notebook Flat XXL tariff for heavy users now offers 7.5 GB of high-speed surfing volume at speeds of up to 42.2 MBit/s for 1 24.99 per month. At the same time, 1&1 has also optimized its tariffs for tablet users. The new 1&1 Tablet Flat Special with 500 MB of high-speed surfing volume at up to 14.4 MBit/s was launched for newcomers. The special tariff with a 24-month term costs 1 4.99 per month. The 1&1 Tablet Flat L tariff remains unchanged at 1 9.99 per month (without device) or 1 19.99 (with free tablet PC) and now offers 1.5 GB of high-speed surfing volume at up to 21.6 MBit/s. The 1&1 Tablet Flat XL is also unchanged at 1 19.99 (without device) or 1 29.99 (with free tablet PC) but now offers twice as much high-speed surfing volume (5 GB) at up to 42.2 MBit/s. As of July 2014, 1&1 no longer only offers its Mobile Internet tariffs for Germany s D Network cellular phone network but also for the E Network. This gives customers the option of selecting the best network for them. The 1&1 All-Net-Flat tariffs for smartphones, the 1&1 Data Flat tariffs for tablets and notebooks, and the complete hardware range are available for both networks. In addition, the 1&1 cellular tariffs all have speeds up to 42.2 MBit/s as of July 1. In selected regions, the E Network also allows speeds of up to 50 MBit/s thanks to LTE technology. As of September 2014, GMX and WEB.DE have been exclusively marketing the new All-Net Smart mobile tariff. The special offer is only available for two SIM-Only variants and provided via the E-Plus network. Thanks to LTE technology, surfing speeds of up to 25 MBit/s are possible in certain regions. The basic version All-Net Smart with 500 MB of data volume and speeds up to 7.2 MBit/s is available for 1 7.99 / month. The All-Net Smart Plus variant with 1,500 MB of data volume and a speed of up to 21.6 MBit/s is available for 1 14.99 / month. Both variants also offer 300 free units for phoning and text messaging in all German mobile and fixed-line networks. Development of the Applications segment In the first nine months of 2014, sales of the Applications segment rose by 8.8% to 1 688.7 million. Sales abroad grew by as much as 20.6% to 1 258.4 million. Due to increasing contribution margins and reduced advertising spending, start-up losses in the new business fields (De-Mail and 1&1 MyWebsite) and for the E-Mail made in Germany initiative in cooperation with Deutsche Telekom were reduced to 1 34.1 million in the reporting period (prior year: 1 87.0 million).

foreword management report financial statements notes 13 This was one of the reasons why earnings easily outpaced sales growth. EBITDA was increased by 53.5%, from 1 111.8 million last year to 1 171.6 million, while EBIT improved by 99.5%, from 1 63.2 million in the previous year to 1 126.1 million.

As part of this change, there was less focus on new customer acquisition in the year so far and more on the sale of additional features (e.g. further domains, e-shops and business apps) to existing customers. Nevertheless, the number of fee-based Business Applications contracts rose by 90,000 contracts to 5.82 million. Contracts in Germany increased by 60,000 to 2.43 million, while contracts abroad rose by 30,000 to 3.39 million in the first nine months of 2014. The number of 1&1 MyWebsite contracts rose by 10,000 to 0.52 million. In addition, 280,000 ntlds were sold to new and existing customers. The focus on these measures is reflected by significantly improved earnings in this segment.

Fee-based accounts with Premium Mail subscriptions decreased by 20,000 to 1.85 million. This was brought about by the expanded scope of services provided by competing, ad-financed free accounts. By contrast, fee-based accounts with Value Added subscriptions rose by 30,000 to 340,000. As a result, fee-based Consumer Accounts rose in total by 10,000 contracts to 2.19 million in the first nine months of 2014. As De-Mail became a standard feature of all free e-mail accounts in the course of the second quarter (instead of being an independent product with separate contract and usage-based fee), United Internet no longer discloses accounts with De-Mail separately.

Of particular note for Consumer Applications were the free integration of De-Mail into the e-mail services of GMX and WEB.DE, as well as the finalization of encrypted communication as part of the E-Mail made in Germany initiative. In January 2014, 1&1 unveiled numerous changes in the field of its webhosting packages which improve the performance and security of websites. The Content Delivery Network (CDN) offers drastically improved loading times for images and content which could not previously be cached. As well as supporting the latest PHP5.5 version, test installations for click & build apps are also offered. In addition, selected packages include 1&1 SiteLock enabling website operators to monitor the security level of their sites. In March 2014, 1&1 presented a new e-shop generation. Developed in collaboration with epages, 1&1 E-Shops offer everything a dealer needs for successful online trading. 1&1 E-Shops automatically adapt to mobile devices, support social networks and offer buyers a genuine online shopping experience. This enables vendors to clearly differentiate themselves from the competition and enjoy online success.

foreword management report financial statements notes 15 Also in March 2014, GMX and WEB.DE announced a greatly improved tariff offer for De-Mail: as of March 10, 2014, the integrated De-Mail flat rate enables all customers of GMX and WEB.DE to send and receive an unlimited number of De-Mails. Within the E-Mail made in Germany alliance, only SSL keys certified in Germany are now used and all transmission paths have been fully encrypted since April 29, 2014. As of May 2014, 1&1 offers a new service for its 1&1 MyWebsite packages. 1&1 MyWebsite by Experts is targeted at all commercial users who would like a professionally designed website but have no time to set up and maintain their content. From 1 49.99 per month, 1&1 s experts take over the complete production, administration and marketing of the website and help generate traffic. Significant changes in investments Squeeze-out of Sedo Holding United Internet subsidiary Sedo Holding AG (now Sedo Holding GmbH) held an extraordinary general meeting in Frankfurt am Main on February 3, 2014. At the meeting, shareholders approved the agenda item Resolution on the transfer of shares held by the remaining shareholders (minority shareholders) of Sedo Holding AG to United Internet Ventures AG, with registered office in Montabaur (majority shareholder), in exchange for appropriate cash consideration pursuant to Secs. 327a ff. AktG (squeeze-out). The District Court of Cologne entered this resolution in the Commercial Register on March 21, 2014. On entry of this transfer resolution, all shares of the minority shareholders of Sedo Holding AG were transferred by law to United Internet Ventures AG. Following the delisting of Sedo Holding AG shares on March 21, 2014, the admission for trading on the Regulated Market was revoked on March 27, 2014. With the aid of the squeeze-out, United Internet aims to integrate the business fields operated by Sedo Holding AG Affiliate Marketing (via affilinet) and Domain Marketing (via Sedo) more closely into the strategic development of the United Internet Group. In addition to the planned closer integration of Sedo activities with other business fields of the Group, United Internet also aims to make Sedo and affilinet more flexible and effective on the market with the aid of faster decision processes and to save costs relating to its stock market listing and mandatory disclosures. Investment in epages On February 19, 2014, United Internet announced that it had acquired via United Internet Ventures AG a stake of 25.1% in the e-shop specialist epages in the course of a capital increase. Based in Hamburg, Germany, epages GmbH is Europe s market leader in online shop software for small and mid-size companies with 80,000 customers. The cloud solution of epages enables merchants with no prior experience to create professional online shops. The solutions are suitable for a variety of company sizes and are currently marketed via 100 partner companies (e.g. hosting providers, telecommunication companies, business directories etc.). This enables partners to tap new e-business revenue streams without having to develop their own e-shop systems. In addition to the equity stake, epages and United Internet s subsidiary 1&1 have agreed a long-term cooperation contract for the use of epages solutions. As part of this cooperation, there is now a joint technology platform for 1&1 E-Shops. The investment in epages will complement United Internet s own product portfolio of cloud applications. Investment in Uberall On April 17, 2014, United Internet AG announced that it had acquired via United Internet Ventures AG a stake of 25% in favor.it labs GmbH, Berlin, operator of the online listing specialist Uberall.com, in the course of a capital increase.

16 Uberall brings together local companies and customers via the internet. On behalf of its customers, Uberall ensures that companies can be found in all standard directories, online business directories, mobile apps and map services and that all company details are consistent. Uberall also promotes improved customer dialogue with the aid of real-time notifications about reviews and enquiries on the affiliated portals. In addition, United Internet subsidiary 1&1 signed a long-term cooperation agreement with Uberall to use its solutions. As part of this cooperation, 1&1 uses Uberall s cloud technology which offers all online listing functions freelancers and SMEs need for successful online operations. Investment in Rocket Internet On August 15, 2014, United Internet announced that it was investing a total of 1 433 million via its subsidiary United Internet Ventures AG for a 10.7% stake in Rocket Internet AG, Berlin. The investment cements the long-term strategic relationship between United Internet and Oliver Samwer, Rocket s Chief Executive Officer and co-founder. The investment consists of 1 333 million in cash and 1 100 million from the contribution of United Internet s investments in the portfolio companies of the Global Founders Capital Funds (GFC; Global Founders Capital No. 1 and European Founders Fund Nos. 2 and 3). The portfolio comprised over 50 investments held jointly by United Internet and Global Founders Fund GmbH, the private investment company of Oliver Samwer and his brothers. Ralph Dommermuth, CEO of United Internet, was also appointed to Rocket s nine-person Supervisory Board. Rocket Internet identifies and builds proven internet business models and transfers them to new, underserved or untapped markets where it seeks to scale them into market leading online companies. It aims to become the world s largest Internet platform outside of China and the United States. Rocket is focused on online business models that satisfy basic consumer needs across three sectors: e-commerce, online marketplaces and financial technology. Rocket started in 2007 and now has more than 20,000 employees across its network of companies, which operate in more than 100 countries on five continents. The company s target markets are located mainly in the emerging markets of Latin America, the Middle East, Africa and Asia, as well as in Russia. These markets are generally characterized by fast-growing smartphone penetration, younger populations than developed markets, newly evolving middle classes, and limited access to physical retail infrastructure. United Internet has been successfully investing in consumer Internet and technology businesses together with the Samwer brothers since 2007. With its strategic investment in Rocket, United Internet has pooled all its investments in the field of e-commerce, marketplaces and financial technology in one place. By contributing its shares in the investment funds to Rocket, United Internet recognized one-off, non-cash income of 1 71.5 million in the third quarter of 2014. Rocket s initial public offering (IPO) on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange was held on October 2, 2014. In the course of the capital increase held together with the IPO, United Internet s investment was diluted to 8.18%. 100% takeover of Versatel On September 3, 2014, United Internet announced that it had signed an agreement with the private equity company Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. L.P. (KKR) to acquire the 74.9% of shares in Versatel GmbH, Berlin, held indirectly by funds managed by KKR and thus to raise its holding of Versatel shares to 100%. The share purchase was effected via a complete takeover of Versatel s holding company VictorianFibre Holding Beteiligungs-GmbH.

foreword management report financial statements notes 17 United Internet had held an indirect stake in Versatel of 25.1% since the end of 2012. For the remaining 74.9% of shares, United Internet paid around 1 586 million in cash. The purchase price and repayment of the Versatel Group s existing net bank liabilities of 1 361 million was financed by new loans. In cooperation with staff and KKR, the current Versatel management team has developed a profitable company over the past few years. This positive trend was also accompanied by United Internet via the company s Advisory Board. For the fiscal year 2014, the Management Board expects revenues of approx. 1 548 million (prior year: 1 547 million) and an EBITDA result of approx. 1 164 million (prior year: 1 155 million). Free cash flow is expected to be around 1 79 million (prior year: 1 75 million). With the acquisition of Versatel, United Internet has gained access to Germany s second-largest fiber-optic network with a length of around 37,000 km. It can be accessed in 226 cities, including 19 of the 25 largest cities in Germany. Over 5,000 locations (companies, institutions etc.) are directly connected to Versatel s fiber-optic network. In addition, Versatel operates approx. 440,000 ADSL and SDSL connections. United Internet has thus strengthened its market position as Germany s second-largest DSL provider after Deutsche Telekom. Versatel s current management team will continue to head the company on its own. The Versatel brand will be retained and the company s B2B business is to be expanded further. In addition, corporate clients are also to be gained in future via the United Internet brand 1&1. Due to its many years of market leadership in the webhosting business, 1&1 has a strong standing with small to mid-size companies and freelancers. United Internet is also planning to source DSL pre-services produced by Versatel in future and thus save up to approx. 1 55 million per year. The planned investments for the years up to 2019 especially for the expansion of Versatel s DSL infrastructure are likely to total approx. 1 145 million. Following the approval of the relevant antitrust authorities, the transaction was completed on October 1, 2014. In the financial statements for the first nine months, the 25.1% investment in Versatel previously held by United Internet was carried at 1 64 million. As of the fourth quarter of 2014, Versatel will be included in the consolidated financial statements of United Internet as a wholly-owned subsidiary. After consideration of transaction costs, the accounting change will result in one-off, non-cash income of approx. 1 100 million in the fourth quarter of 2014. Share and dividend With growth of 9.0% to 1 33.70 as of September 30, 2014 (December 31, 2013: 1 30.92), the United Internet share continued to grow in value in the first nine months of 2014. Compared to September 30, 2013 (1 28.00), the share price rose by 20.4%. The company s Management Board resolved on June 13, 2014 to launch a new share buyback program. In the course of this new share buyback program, up to 2,000,000 company shares can be bought back via the stock exchange. The resolution follows the authorization of the Annual Shareholders Meeting of May 22, 2014 to buy back treasury shares representing up to 10% of the company s capital stock. The authorization was issued for the period up to September 22, 2017. At the end of the reporting period on September 30, 2014, United Internet held 1,144,766 treasury shares, corresponding to around 0.56 % of current capital stock.

18 On September 15, 2014, the Management Board of United Internet AG, with the approval of the Supervisory Board, resolved on a capital increase against cash contributions through partial use of Authorized Capital. In a private placement, the new shares were placed exclusively with institutional investors by way of an accelerated bookbuilding placement. The private placement began on September 15 and ended on September 16, 2014. As a result of the capital increase, the company s share capital was raised from 1 194 million to 1 205 million. The 11 million new ordinary registered shares (no-par value shares) were placed at a price of 1 32.00 per share. United Internet AG generated gross proceeds of around 1 352.0 million from the issue (before commissions and expenses). The net proceeds of the capital increase raise the company s financial flexibility from corporate financing. The new shares were admitted to trading without a prospectus on September 17, 2014 and included in the existing quotation in the sub-segment of the Regulated Market with additional post-admission obligations (Prime Standard) of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange. The new shares will carry full dividend rights as of January 1, 2014. J.P. Morgan acted as bookrunner and HSBC as co-bookrunner for the placement.

The Annual Shareholders Meeting of May 22, 2014 adopted the proposal of the Management Board and Supervisory Board to pay a dividend of 1 0.40 per share for the fiscal year 2013. This corresponds to 37.4% of consolidated net income after tax for 2013 and is thus at the upper end of the 20% to 40% of adjusted consolidated net income targeted by the company s dividend policy (unless funds are required for further company development). Based on the closing 2013 price of the United Internet share on September 30, 2014, the dividend yield was 1.2%.

foreword management report financial statements notes 19 Position of the Group Earnings position United Internet AG can look back on a successful first nine months of its fiscal year 2014. Consolidated sales grew by 11.0% in the reporting period, from 1 1,955.1 million in the previous year to 1 2,170.9 million. Sales in the Access segment improved by 12.1%, from 1 1,321.9 million to 1 1,481.7 million, and in the Applications segment by 8.8%, from 1 633.0 million to 1 688.7 million. Foreign sales (exclusively in the Applications segment) were increased by 20.6%, from 1 214.3 million to 1 258.4 million. In the first nine months of 2014, United Internet once again invested heavily in new customer relationships and the expansion of existing customer relationships. The number of fee-based customer contracts was increased by 660,000 to a total of 14.11 million. Customer acquisition costs continued to be charged directly as expenses. Gross margin improved from 33.9% in the prior-year period to 34.5% in the first nine months of 2014. As a result of increased sales and the improvement in gross margin, gross profit rose by 13.0% from 1 662.4 million in the previous year to 1 748.5 million. Due in particular to reduced advertising spending in new business fields, sales and marketing expenses fell from 1 351.6 million (18.0% of sales) in the previous year to 1 336.7 million (15.5% of sales). Administrative expenses increased in line with sales from 1 87.2 million in the previous year to 1 98.2 million (4.5% of sales in both years). Development of key cost items (in 5 million) 9M 2010 9M 2011 9M 2012 9M 2013 9M 2014 Cost of sales 881.3 1,018.5 1,166.5 1,292.7 1,422.3 Cost of sales ratio 62.5% 66.3% 66.0% 66.1% 65.5% Gross margin 37.5% 33.7% 34.0% 33.9% 34.5% Selling expenses 227.0 240.3 340.5 351.6 336.7 Selling expenses ratio 16.1% 15.6% 19.3% 18.0% 15.5% Administrative expenses 67.9 71.3 79.7 87.2 98.2 Administrative expenses ratio 4.8% 4.6% 4.5% 4.5% 4.5% In the Access segment, a marketing campaign for 1&1 DSL premium tariffs was conducted in the period January to June 2014. As part of this campaign, new and existing customers (when changing to a premium tariff) were able to opt for the addition of a heavily subsidized (or even free) brand-name tablet. A total of around 1 20.6 million was expensed in total for this campaign. These investments will have a sustained positive impact on the future development of segment earnings. As a result of increasing contribution margins and reduced advertising spending, start-up losses in the new business fields (De-Mail / 1&1 MyWebsite) and for the E-Mail made in Germany initiative of the Applications segment were reduced to 1 34.1 million in the reporting period (prior year: 1 87.0 million). At Group level, earnings in the first nine months of 2014 were affected by one-off income from the contribution of investments in the portfolio companies of the Global Founders Capital Funds to Rocket Internet AG. Included in other operating income in the third quarter, this non-cash and non-recurring income accounted for 1 71.5 million of EBITDA and EBIT or 1 0.36 of EPS.

20 Without this one-off income, EBITDA rose by 35.4% from 1 280.5 million to 1 379.8 million and EBIT by 49.0% from 1 210.6 million to 1 313.7 million. Adjusted EPS improved by 56.5% from 1 0.69 last year to 1 1.08. Including one-off income, EBITDA rose by 60.9% to 1 451.3 million, EBIT by 82.9% to 1 385.2 million and EPS by 108.7% to 1 1.44.

Despite the expansion of business (sales growth of 11.0%), net cash inflows from operating activities increased from 1 196.9 million to 1 274.0 million.

foreword management report financial statements notes 21 Net cash outflows from investing activities amounted to 1 384.5 million in the reporting period (prior year: 1 192.4 million). This resulted mainly from disbursements of 1 38.5 million (prior year: 1 43.5 million) for capital expenditures, as well as from payments for the acquisition of shares in associated companies of 1 21.5 million (investments in epages and favor.it labs, as well as investments via Global Founders Capital No. 1, as well as from investments in other financial assets of 1 334.5 million (mainly the investment in Rocket Internet). In addition to capital expenditures, net cash outflows in the previous year mainly included payments for the acquisition of shares in affiliated companies of 1 131.4 million (Arsys takeover), and payments for the acquisition of shares in associated companies of 1 20.9 million (especially Open- Xchange investment). Free cash flow (i.e. net cash inflows from operating activities, less capital expenditures, plus payments from disposals of intangible assets and property, plant and equipment) amounted to 1 239.8 million compared to 1 155.3 million in the previous year. This demonstrates the Group s ability to consistently generate high levels of cash while at the same time achieving strong qualitative growth. Net cash flow for financing activities in the first nine months of 2014 was dominated in particular by dividend payments of 1 77.3 million (prior year: 1 58.0 million) and the purchase of treasury shares amounting to 1 32.5 million (prior year: 1 27.7 million) as well as with an opposing effect the net proceeds from the capital increase amounting to 1 348.4 million and new loans of 1 3.0 million (prior year: 1 94.1 million).

Non-current assets increased from 1 970.9 million 1 as of December 31, 2013 to 1 1,388.9 million as of September 30, 2014. Within this item, additions to property, plant and equipment and intangible assets of 1 38.5 million (for furniture and fixtures, as well as software) were opposed by depreciation and amortization of 1 66.1 million. Goodwill was virtually unchanged at 1 457.3 million. Despite the investments in epages and favor.it labs, shares in associated companies fell from 1 115.3 million 1 as of December 31, 2013 to 1 98.5 million due to the contribution of shares in the Global Founders Capital Funds to Rocket Internet. Other financial assets increased from 1 47.6 million 1 to 1 487.0 million due in particular to the investment in Rocket Internet. Non-current prepaid expenses resulting mainly from prepayments made in connection with long-term purchase agreements rose from 1 7.3 million to 1 29.7 million.
